Discover how the new ICS310: ICS Cybersecurity Foundations course is transforming the way professionals enter the critical field of ICS/OT cybersecurity. The world relies on critical infrastructure for all aspects of daily life, and sectors across the board have integrated Industrial Control Systems (ICS) and Operational Technology (OT) into their key operations. This evolution has created a pressing need for a uniquely skilled, diverse workforce equipped with expertise in engineering, operations, IT/OT, and cybersecurity.
With many practitioners entering the field and a global demand to rapidly enhance ICS capabilities and maturity, SANS has introduced ICS310—a short, easily consumable, foundational course for individuals entering this vital space and for practitioners already in the field to instill the fundamentals. Designed as a steppingstone, the course equips participants with an understanding of operations, ICS, and the cybersecurity threats they face, while also offering actionable insights into immediate security controls.
In this webcast, SANS course authors Robert M. Lee, Tim Conway, and Jeffrey Shearer discuss the course’s design, the key topics it covers, and how it fits into the broader SANS ICS curriculum. Learn how ICS310 provides a solid prerequisite for advanced ICS courses, while also meeting the critical infrastructure workforce's current and future needs.
Whether you're new to ICS/OT cybersecurity or looking to expand your knowledge, ICS310 is your gateway to protecting the systems that make, move, and power our world.
